Occult illuminator system

ABSTRACT

In an occult illuminator system, an occult illuminator device and method are disclosed comprising, inter alia, providing a hollow chamber having window means therein so that the interior thereof can be seen by a person as a viewer looking into said chamber through said window means, said chamber having light reflective material lining the interior thereof, at least one half of which is crinkled metal foil, illuminating the interior of said chamber and reflecting the light therein off said lining and through said window means to the eye of said viewer, whereby to form images which appear in said chamber in the mind of said viewer.

4 Claims, 3 Drawing Figures 1 OCCULT ILLUMINATOR SYSTEM My inventionrelates to the mystic sciences, so called, or the occult.

The principal object of my invention is to provide an occult illuminatorsystem by which students of theoccult can satisfy their yearnings aftermysterious and supernatural powers and forces.

The foregoing object of my invention and the advantages thereof willbecome apparent during the course of the following description, taken inconjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which FIGS. 1 and 2 are,respectively, top plan and front elevational views of an occultilluminator system embodying my invention; and

FIG. 3 is a vertical sectional view of the structure of FIG. 1 taken onthe line 3-3 thereof.

' Referring to the drawings in greater detail, generally designates saidembodiment of my invention which comprises a hollow square-basedisosceles triangularsided frusto-pyramidal illuminated light-reflectingcontainer. The sides of the container 10, which are designated 14, format the upper ends thereof an-eye-cupped gazing opening or peep hole 17and at the bottom ends thereof are bonded to upstanding edges 13 on abase 12.A mirror 22 which, in the instance, is spherically convex issuitably bonded to the inside face of the base 12 and disposed so as toface said peep hole 17. The-inside faces of the walls 14 are lined withreflective material such as metal foil which is smooth except forcrinkles therein. The surface shading of the metal foil lining 20 inFIG. 3 is intended to illustrate this condition of'said lining20of'being both crinkly and smooth. Each wall 14 is provided with aplurality of equally spaced apart horizontally aligned aperturesls'disposed approximately one-third of the full pyramid altitude of thecontainer 10 if the latter were a complete pyramid. Said container 10'isprovided with a light source which, in the instance, comprises aplurality of lighttransmitting cylinders 19 carried in the sides 14,which cylinders 19 are of translucent material of length approximatelyone-twelfth that of said full pyramid altitude. The cylinders 19, knownas fiber optics, are preferably formedof colored plastic and are fittedand heldin said apertures 15. The cylinders 19 are preferably ofdifferent colors.

In use of said container 10, light exterior thereto enters the interiorthereof through said cylinders 19 and is converted to different coloredlights which differently colored light is reflected by the metal foillining 20 and the mirror 22. The user gazes with one eye into theinterior of said container 10 by way of said peep hole 17. The user seesin the center of the container 10 the reflection of his own eye andtheresurrounding an illuminated frusto-pyramidal reflective interiorstructure being the image of the mirror 22 and of the foursided metalfoil lining 20. Students of the occult who gaze into the container 10withvconcentration are able to discern images, objects and otherphantasms which enable them to study and bring under human observationwhat appears to them to be phenomena of the occult involvingextrasensory perception, telepathy, hypnotism, mesmerism and the likemystic powers and forces;

It will thus be seen that there has been provided by my invention anoccult illuminator system in which the object hereinabove set forth,together with many thoroughly practical advantages, has beensuccessfully achieved. While a preferred embodiment of my invention hasbeen shown and described it is to be understood that variations andchanges may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of myinvention as de'- fined by the appended claims.

What I claim is:

1. in an occult illuminator system, an occult illuminator device,comprising:

ahollow chamber having interior walls facing a base,

a mirror mounted on the base, and an opening for a user to view themirror; crinkled metal foil'lining the interior walls of the chamber soas to form an'image on said mirror; and alight source "for said chamberfor-illuminating the interior thereof whereby the user can view theimageof the crinkled foil in the mirror along a line of sight throughthe chamber opening.

2. An occult illuminator device as claimed in claim 1, said chamberbeing a square based isosceles triangular-sidedfrusto-pyramidal shapedchamber.

3. An occult illuminator device as claimed in claim 1, said sourcecomprising a plurality of lighttransmitting cylinders of translucentmaterial carried in said side wall means of said chamber fortransmitting light from the exterior to the interior thereof;

4. An occult illuminator device as claimed in claim 3, said cylindersbeing differently colored translucent material for transmitting aplurality of differently colored lights to the interior of said chamber.
